Brilliant to see RETURN TO OZ on a good 70mm release print 41 years to the day from its premiere. Walter Murch gave top drawer Q&A with anecdotes about Michael Sundin, Freddie Francis, Nicol Williamson and… Paul Daniels?
I will be hosting a Q&A with Walter after this special 70mm screening of Return To Oz! My favourite film 🥰

There are many, many cool moments in the documentary ('Her Name Was Moviola') but my favourite is when the only way to watch their synced footage is on Stanley Kubrick's old machine, and you see Murch (3 Oscars) geek out a little bit. And later he goes back with Mike Leigh, and Leigh geeks out too.
Saw Her Name Was Moviola with a crowd of NERDS and Murch in the room. Bears many repeat viewings. In a short time gives a complete and fun perspective on the care and thought put into celluloid editing, and editing as a dialogue between filmmakers. But ffs stop asking these guys about AI you normies

On the evening of Alex Pretti's murder, Tim Cook put on a tuxedo and attended the Bezos bribery film Melania. And then this. Scum.

I’ve been on my pre-surgery diet for two weeks, and just have a few more days to put up with it. Once I can eat what I want again, I’m going to have the best meal ever!! What is it about the moment you’re told you’re not allowed something that you want it even more?

Stopped at the airport to be swabbed and also have my bags searched. Again. “Excuse me sir, which are your bags? You’ve been selected for a random bag search.” Random.
Of course I got profiled by security at the airport. Every. Single. Time. What’s in your suitcase? What have you packed? List the items. Are you sure you listed everything? Are you certain there’s nothing else you missed? Where are you going? Why? We’re going to take everything out and swab it.

I’ve spent the last few days working with my team of colleagues to document the buildings and stages in the Fairbanks Building and Neptune House at BBC Elstree Centre in 360° and LiDAR. Built for ATV in 1960 and 61, these two buildings are due to be demolished later this year.
